Why would my folic acid level drop?

Hi, been feeling grotty. Got bloods done...inc TFT/B12 FBC etc. Got a call from GP to say my folic acid levels are really low-1.9. Now supplementing. Why would they have suddenly dropped?

Did you ask what your B12 levels were? I'm B12 deficient and have to take folic acid and iron too x

My B12 & Iron are ok. My Haemaglobin & Folate are both low....I'm on Folic Acid for 6 months & then need another blood test.
